Kyrle Trial 2018 Regs Available

“Ross & District Motor Sports Club have pleasure in welcoming you to the 41st running of The Kyrle Trial. Yes, 41 years ago the first Kyrle Trial was organised in April 1977. A single venue event by Richard Andrews up on May Hill and it was won by Eric Wall in his Canhi. I am pleased to say that some of those original organisers are still involved today.

Last year we successfully introduced a Clubman’s trial alongside the main trial. You DO NOT require a Competition Licence for the Clubman’s trial. We also include mandatory Road Traffic Act insurance, which this year costs £8.40 per car and is included in the entry fee.

We are staying with our autumn date to avoid the Goshawks. We will be starting early to make the most of the daylight. Don’t forget, the clocks change the night before the trial. The Clerk of the Course team is the same as last year, Nigel Green and Paul Bartleman. They have been out and about during the summer taking a look at old and new sections and have found some new ones and some that have not been used for many years. Weather wise prepare for anything. Our hills are suitable for all classes and driver skills. We will use some old favourite sections together with the new or resurrected hills, with our October date we have a good portfolio of hills to choose from.

A new start venue this year, unfortunately the café we have used for many years will be closed for refurbishment. The finish of the trial remains at our Club House in Ross-on-Wye where tea, coffee and soft drinks will be available and the bar will be open to help quench honest thirst! Please note the date, Sunday 28th October and come along to marshal if you cannot enter. will be pleased to hear from you at any time on. We look forward to seeing you for another good day’s trialing with around 12 competitive hills and two observed tests. Remember, our hills are not rough, but they are tough and steep.
